In Ex Libris, she offers a personal selection of over 100 works of fiction, nonfiction and poetry, with passionate essays on why each has had a profound effect on her life.From Homers The Odyssey to The Writings and Speeches of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Margaret Atwoods The Handmaids Tale to Elena Ferrantes Neapolitan Novels, Ex Libris covers a rich and vast range of classics, old and new, that will help build a well-rounded reader and citizen of the world. With gorgeous illustrations by lettering artist Dana Tanamachi that evoke vintage bookplates leafed between Kakutanis inspiring essays, Ex Libris points us to our next great read and proves an unmissable reminder of why we fell in love with reading in the first place. From 'the most powerful book critic in the English-speaking world' (Vanity Fair) comes an inspiring and beautifully illustrated selection of the life-changing books that none of us should miss Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
